Anacortes, Washington, USA
The photograph captures the dramatic visual contrast between heavy industry and nature at March Point near Anacortes, Washington. The background is dominated by the sprawling oil refinery complex, identifiable by its towering smokestacks and industrial structures, emitting large plumes of steam and smoke that merge with the overcast, orange-hued sunrise sky. This stark, imposing industrial scene is softened by the foreground, where the calm waters of Puget Sound reflect the glow, and a single, small sailboat drifts peacefully. The sailboat provides a sense of scale and natural repose, highlighting the juxtaposition of a powerful industrial landscape with the tranquility of the Northwest marine environment.
